"This week, those requests, along with the more than 35,000 others listed on DonorsChoose.org, a crowdfunding website for school and classroom projects, were fully funded thanks to a single $29 million donation.
“A million students, overwhelmingly in low-income communities, are going to feel the impact of this gift within the next few weeks,” said Charles Best, chief executive of the nonprofit group, which he founded in 2000 while teaching history and English in a Bronx classroom.
The gift, by far the largest ever received by the charity, came after the site reached out to Ripple, a virtual currency company that has amassed wealth at an astonishing pace, and its executives."
Thoughts? Always good to see positive crypto in the news.
I believe that this news can not and should not have an influence and attitude towards the XRP token. Many of us are here to earn money. But charity is a separate item, it's a private matter for everyone and it can characterize a particular person or the council of campaign leaders. But the price of the project, the product, the token, etc. is formed entirely from other parameters and criteria. Let's not forget this. |

I like Cardano: maybe it will go 2.00 USD
I also like Ripple
It all depends on your budget. If the budget is small, then Cardano is really a good choice and a number of such currencies as: XRP, TRX, 0x, NEM. For more serious investments, now is the ideal time to average out and for this will do: BTC, ETH, EOS, LTC, NEO, XMR, DASH. |

I have a very strong feeling tonight that this crash is actually the biggest blessing we could receive from the crypto Gods. Hopefully you have been buying during the dip. I feel that within the next week the crash and burn will turn. My intuition and instincts have always been pretty good. This crash is actually making more millionaires than destroying them. You may not ever see the market this low again in your entire life. Is it at the bottom...who knows...but as long as your buying during this epic dip, you will come out a champ over the next year. I am thankful right now, not regretful. I hope you can see things from the same perspective. Buy what you can afford and just hold. This is the moment that could set up the rest of your life. I personally am going all in and doubling down across the board.
You are doing it right. The market is cyclical and after the long winter always comes summer. If a person does not understand this and runs to sell at a market sinking, then he has nothing to do here. All the others buy and wait for recovery. I wish everyone patience and self-control, these qualities will help you increase your money many times. |

what is whale and why they can manipulate the market and how did they do it? I'm curious about that.
The term "whale" is used to describe large holders of currency, it can be, as one person, and a whole group of people. Below I will give an example of options for manipulating the market. Rinse and Repeat Bitcoin Whales and How They Make Market WavesThere are many trading maneuvers whales use to profit, like using a trading tactic commonly called the ’rinse and repeat cycle.’ The rinse trade is used in many types of markets and can be effective if timed correctly and very profitable if you are a bitcoin whale. The trader with a lot of holdings starts selling bitcoins lower than the market rate which at times can cause a panic sell off by small-time traders. The trick is the whale sold just below the current market value and just enough to watch panic ensue. Then the whale waits and watches the panic selling take place until the bitcoin price reaches a new low. At this point, the whales quickly scoop up way more bitcoins than they first started with and after the ‘rinse’ they usually ‘repeat’ this type of trade often. People speculate that there are many ways whales can throw their ‘BTC weight’ around to either push the price up or down to accumulate more bitcoins. Further, whales are not just individuals and can be an organization like a bitcoin investment fund as well. Utilizing Buy and Sell Walls Whales in a sense don’t even have to trade their bitcoins to affect the market as they can also bluff with buy and sell walls. In cryptocurrency markets, exchanges use an order book to facilitate trades where a buyer can set up an order to buy or sell at a specified price other than the spot price. For instance, if the market drops traders will usually buy at a lower bid and sell if the price reaches a higher level. In order to place an order in the exchange’s order book, you have to legitimately own enough funds to cover the order. This means a whale and even smaller traders in many ways can bluff and make it seem like a buy or sell walls exist. However, often times large buy and sell walls disappear just before the price gets close enough because a big player was just bluffing. Nevertheless many buy and sell walls are very real and can change the odds rather quickly if they manage to liquidate someone’s assets. OTC Markets and Dark Pools Sometimes whales don’t purchase or sell on traditional exchanges because their holdings or orders could cause a stir in the market. For cryptocurrencies over the counter trading (OTC) or “dark pools” is where big buyers and institutional traders can purchase vast amounts of bitcoins without being seen by the public eye. Dark pools are similar to OTC trading as they are usually found on exchanges that enable ‘off the record’ trades which ensures a whale’s moves are more private. Typically OTC markets and dark pools only allow traders who purchase an abundant amount of bitcoin at one time and set minimums for entry. |

The fact that the future of the internet currently looks very promising is undeniable. Aelf is a blockchain site that is turning the potential of the internet a notch higher, by introducing devolved cloud computing. The main purpose of the project is the creation of a ‘linux bionetwork’ for blockchains. Read More Here: https://www.tokens24.com/cryptopedia/coin-guides/what-is-aelf-how-it-worksI participated in the campaign of this project. The project is certainly very interesting, the team is very active and public. But in my opinion there is a nuance, such projects can not be unambiguous. On the one hand, there is a good idea and a team, and on the other hand there is no finished product, everything is in the process of development and only after receiving the result can you safely evaluate the project. |

Dear manager, in your official blog Medium you wrote that to get tokens, participants must send 0.025 ETH. "In order to be able to send all the bounty tokens to you, we’ll ask you to contribute the min. amount in our token sale (at the moment 0.025 ETH is less than 10 USD).
Then you’ll receive the DOG tokens of our token sale and we’ll send you the tokens of the bounty (everything is registered on our spreadsheet)".
Erc20.Dog I would like to draw your attention to the fact that many participants worked conscientiously every day from the very beginning of the campaign, but the results of our work were not included in the table. I took responsibility and counted our tokens based on the total number of days that the campaign was conducted and the number of followers in Twitter. Here's what happened: 0.025 ETH = 10.13 USD 1 ETH = 405.10 USD 2000 DOG = 405.10 USD Bounty Start: 4 March - Bounty End: 01.04 = 29 days Retweet Campaign: You can submit only two RT per day per account. 200-499 Followers: 1 DOG / RT = 58 DOG = 0.0117479 ETH = 4.76 USD -> profit -5.37 USD500-1999 Followers: 3 DOG / RT = 174 DOG = 0.0352437 ETH = 14.28 USD -> profit 4.15 USD2000-4999 Followers: 5 DOG / RT = 290 DOG = 0.0587395 ETH = 23.80 USD -> profit 13.67 USD5000 and above Followers: 7 DOG / RT = 406 DOG = 0.0822353 ETH = 33.31 USD -> profit 23.18 USD |

Just want to remind everyone and the beginner and experienced traders / users about the danger of phishing sites. Before entering your passwords and personal keys, look carefully what is written in the address bar. Learn by heart the sites of exchanges.
If there is one extra letter in the address bar or a dot or a double letter, this is a cloned site (scammers). It looks the same, everything is like on original site, only in the address bar an extra letter, a digit.
Today I switched over the link to watch the course and got on a cloned site. Be careful always.
To protect yourself from phishing, it is enough to follow the basic safety rules on the Internet. 1. Save sites to bookmarks. 2. Invent complex passwords and do not use the same password on different sites. 3. Always enable two-factor authentication if possible. 4. Enter authentication data using the on-screen keyboard. These steps will be enough to protect your account from intruders. |

In my opinion the ideal list for 02.04.2018 as follows:
1) ADA;
2) REQ;
3) GNT;
4) XRP;
5) 0x.
Perhaps today is the last chance to buy some coins/tokens from lists at such a low price.

I know how people feel, those who invested in December or January like me, who fell love with crypto, and the way price was going up, never believed I have to see market cap under $250 billion. However, Everyday I check my Black folio app, I feel sick in my stomach. Sometimes I feel what I have done? But i knew there was a risk, i knew, I could lose money, but I couldn't control my rush of blood, seeing people buying right and left whatever they could.
But my question to all those investors, do you believe in crypto? If you do then hold tight because good days will come, if you are not in need an emergency cash, then hold your coin, It can't be red all days, it will be green. have some faith in this industry. I know it's hard seeing the bloodbath, what's happening, but we will rise again.
Even though I lost 70% of my portfolio, I'm still holding because I know good days are coming soon. Good luck guys.
Forgive the harshness of my words. This is addressed to everyone who creates these threads on the forum. But are you really willing to risk money without studying the industry, the market, the project you're investing in? I believe in blockchain technology, I believe that this technology can change the world for the better, open all the pus and make all financial transactions more transparent, I believe in the growth of cryptocurrency capitalization, I know that the portfolio can lose 80-90% in value and this is the norm! I invest only the money that is ready to lose by investing in the project, asking myself the question: "will it be needed in the new world, in which everything is built on the blockchain?". In my opinion, this is not the only correct approach, but it has some basis. |

Is there anywhere I can go to see what all this means?
I'm inclined to think it's just a joke. If this were not the case, there would be a topic with a detailed description of how this should work. And all done so that you do not understand how the system works and begin to doubt. Therefore, waiting for 2 APR and sad about failing to earn merit to increase rank  |

If Coinbase also wants to build a dispersed exchange, the 0x deal will be a huge help for the Coinbase exchange.
So I think this is a good time to invest in 0x.
I support your opinion. I think everybody understands that the future of decentralized exchange and 0x provides a ready-made Protocol. Of course coinbase may not implement it, but now is a great chance to invest in 0x. 2019 will be a breakthrough year for this project. If doubts remain, it is enough to look at the list of projects that have publicly announced the implementation of the Protocol on the official website. |

Hello crypto lovers, i want to share with all of you, my bounty experience. Aproximetly 3 months ago i saw cryptocurrency for the first time, that was bitcoin when it hit over 17k $, it was so exciting for me and i start learn more about cryptocurrency. After some days, I start to look for ways to get tokens without invest, because i am student and havent money what I would be able to invest. I found Bounty campaigns, I was skeptical about bounty in start, but I decided to try it. After the first month in bounty's I started seeing income, it was really awesome, i was so happy about that and now its the third month as I participating in bounty and i can share my profit to all users, maybe someone says it's nothing special, but in my country minimal salary for 1 month work(10h in day) is 240eur, and when i get over 2500$ in 3 month just for supporting in social media, it's something inconceivable! Right now we must observe how the market flows but one thing for sure it will recover again its value! If there are newbies who do not believe in bounty, i can say that all is legit, and we all can easly earn tokens for free, of course if you are active and you will be ready to do it every day!  Thanks!  I hope my English is not so bad to understand my thoughts! Hello, sir. It was very interesting to read about your experience. I want to tell my story and share some thoughts. I started my first campaign two months ago, most of the projects were not paid, one project received tokens, but my efforts were not worth it. Most of the projects are still underway. Since I combine everything with work, I can't run more than 25 companies at the same time. During this time, I prepared an account on Twitter and Facebook, the number of friends/subscribers 5k. So as, in our country wages 350$, and rent housing is worth 260$, then on bounty'm pinning special hope. I see, that for obtain greater profits need high rank on forum, but even good posts no one assesses. Given that I spend all my free time on bounty, is there any hope for me to make good money? |

Hello, do you have some good bounty campaigns right now? And would you like to share with us? Because I see there are many new bounties, but many of them are too bad and not worth spending time on. Thank you for your tips  . Hello sir, I would like to share Bounty Fishcoin https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3122833 from hua_hui Manager. In General, the more I want to say about the Manager and his campaigns. After all, the success of the campaign depends on the Manager and how popular it will be. I think a huge advantage of the fact that the subscription campaign there is a limit on the number of participants for each rank. In addition, the Manager offers to write to him if your number of friends/subscribers has changed, to increase your rate. What was especially nice was that in 1 week hua_hui wrote to all participants whose weekly tasks were not fully completed or defects were made and explained how to fix it. Wonder why so little of it thank. I highly recommend to participate in its Bounty. Please was someone in his campaigns and what were your impressions. |

Big/medium banks are never going to use Ripple, theyre only trying it out and will drop it then make their own technology (not de-centralized!) Blockchain will change how we send money, but not through banks. Theyre completely against de-centralized control of financial system. We need blockchain solutions like Kora ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2876521.0) that are person to person and small business to small business Ripple has a great future, the flagship products of which are already used by a huge number of banks with a worldwide reputation. The other side of this coin is that the flagship products are xRapid and xVia, which do not use the XRP token. Therefore, the fate of the token can not be known, perhaps the token will be used in small businesses and since the company has money, they may well increase the number of transactions per second, approaching Visa and Mastercard. |
